GetAbsoluteWindowSize()

Summary

Determines the absolute size of a window.

 

Syntax

size = GetAbsoluteWindowSize(string window, array options)

 

Argument	Contents
window	String of the form "window type|window name," or "window name" if the window name is unique among the window types, or null for the current window

 

Option	Type	Contents
Units	String	Any standard unit (e.g., "Inches"), or "pixels" to get the size in screen pixels
Client Area	Boolean	If "True" returns the dimension of the internal rectangle omitting title bar and borders; if "False" (the default) these are included

 

Returns

An array of two reals indicating the absolute size of the window in standard units or pixels:

 

Element	Type	Contents
1	Real	The width of the window
2	Real	The height of the window

 

Notes

• The size may differ from what a ruler would show because user's picture width and height adjustments can't be taken into account.

• For more information on window types, see Windows.

Example

// Before running the example, open any map.

sz = GetAbsoluteWindowSize(GetMap(), {{"Units", "Inches"}, {"Client Area ", "True"}})

ShowArray(sz)
